Start seeds indoors or, in climate with short growing seasons, outdoors at least one week after last frost. If starting indoors, allow 7 to 10 weeks for the seeds to mature into seedlings large enough to transplant safely. Fertilize when the blooms appear, and water well. Fruit is most nutritious if allowed to ripen on the plant.

Sow seeds indoors ¼" deep. Peppers germinate best in warm soil, so gentle bottom heat may be helpful until seedlings emerge. Wait to transplant outdoors until soil is warm.
Pepper seeds come from tropical, humid regions and require proper temperature, moisture, and air circulation for optimal growth. Avoid using jiffy peat pots, plugs, or potting soil as they can cause problems with moisture levels and lead to disease and fungus. Organic Seed Starting Material is recommended for optimal germination results..
